  Claudius (gens)
The gens Claudia was one of the oldest families in ancient Rome, and for centuries its members were regularly leaders of the city and empire.
The family was traditionally held to have begun with Attius Clausus, a Sabine who favored peace with Rome, an unpopular position that led to him leaving Regillus[?] with his followers around 504 BC.
Clodius was a "plebeian" spelling used by some members of the gens, while Claudia[?] (and Clodia) were the forms used by women.

The gens Aureliae was created on the 9th day of Decembre of the year 2001 of the Gregorian calendar.

 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Cardinal Protector
Cicero, e.g., was patronus of Dyrrachium (Durazzo) and of Capua, in which city a gilded statue was raised to him.
In time the office became hereditary in certain families; Suetonius, in his life of Tiberius, says that the Claudian family (gens Claudia) was from ancient times (antiquitus) protector of Sicily and the Peloponnesus.
The Roman Church adopted this, with many other imperial institutions, as one serviceable for external administration, not that the popes who first conferred this office and title sought to copy an ancient Roman usage, but because analogous conditions and circumstances created a similar situation.
